How Inspector General of Police warns Tambuwal

With the high level of rascality displayed by some police officers in
the National Assembly on Thursday as captured on camera on different
media, the Inspector General of Police, S. Abba is still trying to
defend the the impunity and he even went ahead to warn the Speaker of
the House of Reps, Aminu Tambuwal and other lawmakers that were tear
gassed by his boys? This is sickening!

Below is a statement by Ag. CP Emma Ojukwu on behalf of the IGP:

“Following an intelligence report of a likely invasion of the House of
Representatives by hoodlums and thugs, the Nigeria Police Force promptly
deployed its personnel to the premises to prevent a breakdown of law
and order.

“Consequently, the Police condoned the area and began screening of all members and visitors alike.

“In the course of this lawful exercise...

Alh. Aminu Tambuwal CFR, arrived the venue with a motley crowd, who
broke the cordon, assaulted the Police and evaded due process and the
Police had the duty to restore order and normalcy, using lawful means.

“The IGP seizes this medium to warn all political actors and their
followers to respect constituted authority and due process and to desist
from the use of thugs to pursue their agenda.

“The Nigeria Police shall continually apply all lawful means to prevent a
breakdown of law and order in all segments of the society and shall
apply the full weight of the law on any political actor who violates the
peace and security of the nation.”

Anyway, the Senate President, David Mark, has summoned the IGP to appear
before the senate to defend the action of his officers at the National
Assembly. The House of Reps has also summoned him.

Impunity is fast becoming the order of the day in Nigeria today. Really sad!Join News Oga Black Berry Messanger Channel Today And Get Latest Updates. Click Here To Join
